Grade A · 91.9 / 100
Unchanged since 2026-07-31.
What this grade measures
The quality of the schedule data this agency publishes for trip-planning apps: whether riders using Google Maps, Apple Maps, or Transit see current, correct, and complete information. It measures the data feed, not service quality or operations.
Progress this period
No newly cleared items this period. The score and trend above reflect where the feed stands today.
What needs attention next
Three improvements, in priority order, each sized so the board can see what it is approving:
Add feed_info.txt with feed_start_date and feed_end_date to your export.
feed_info.txt is missing its start/end dates (the file itself is absent) Apps and this scorecard can't warn anyone before the feed goes stale without stated validity dates.
Estimated effort: Two fields, set once in export settings.
Add feed_info.txt with publisher name, URL, language, and feed_start_date/feed_end_date.
A file GTFS asks for (usually feed_info.txt) is missing. feed_info.txt tells apps who publishes the feed and when it expires; without it nobody is warned before data goes stale.
Estimated effort: One small file, set once in export settings.
Add feed_contact_email to feed_info.txt.
feed_info.txt has no technical contact (feed_contact_email or feed_contact_url). Trip-planning apps and regional data coordinators have nobody to email when they spot a problem with your feed, so problems linger.
Estimated effort: One field.
